Outside, Inside, and All Around Us
A Two Part Seminar Series
|
|
 |
Cost: $59.95
Dates: 9/28 & 11/16
The Asheville Jung Center is very pleased to announce our fall Zurich seminar series presented by author Murray Stein on teachings from the essays in Outside, Inside, and All Around Us. This course will consist of 2 seminars which will be held on September 28 and November 16. Participants may register for both lectures for the price of $59.95. Participants joining anytime after the first course is held can still register and catch up by watching the recorded version of the prior lecture. We have limited available to watch the live seminar so sign us soon to make sure and reserve your spot.
In these late essays, Murray Stein circles around familiar Jungian themes such as synchronicity, individuation, archetypal image and symbol with a view to bringing these ideas into today’s largely globalized cultural space. These are reflections for our time, drawing importantly on the works of C.G. Jung, Erich Neumann, Wolfgang Pauli and a wide range of contemporary Jungian psychoanalytic writers. The general thesis is that all of humanity is connected – to one another, to nature and to the cosmos – and no human being should be left out of the picture of postmodern consciousness.
September 28, 2017 11AM ET – “Outside Inside and All Around – What are we? A Question of Identity”
In this seminar we will consider the question of psychological identity from a Jungian perspective. We are individuals, but we are also representatives of histories and cultures. The webinar will include illustrative material from Jung’s “Red Book.”
November 16, 2017 11AM ET – “Pauli’s Piano Lesson – The Transcendent Function as a Practice”
This webinar will feature a reading of Wolfgang Pauli’s late active imagination titled “The Piano Lesson” dedicated to Marie-Louise von Franz. The seminar will focus on the question of practicing the dynamic process made available by the transcendent function in daily life. Examples from experience and clinical practice will be included.

| | Jung's Evolving Views of Nazi Germany
|
|  |
This book describes for the first time Jung’s views of Nazi Germany during the whole period from the Nazi takeover in 1933 to the end of World War II. It brings together the authors’ research in archives and primary sources during the past 10 years.
“The Schoenls have written a carefully researched survey of Jung’s attitudes toward Germany from 1933 to 1945 based on primary and secondary documents from which they draw balanced and nuanced conclusions,” says Dr. Murray Stein. “This book is an important contribution to the literature on the topic of Jung and anti-Semitism, which has occupied the minds of Jungian scholars and analysts for decades and to this day continues to be an obstacle in the way of Jung’s positive reception in the academic world…This book walks the delicate path between the extremes of hostile judgment and blind denial, weighing evidence and maintaining scholarly objectivity. For this the authors are to be commended. I recommend this book for people who are serious students of Jung and the history of analytical psychology.”
William Schoenl is professor emeritus of Modern European history at Michigan State University, where he taught for 45 years. His recent publications include Jung’s Evolving Views of Nazi Germany: From 1936 to the End of World War II, Journal of Analytical Psychology, 59(2), (April 2014) and An Answer to the Question: Was Jung, for a Time, a "Nazi Sympathizer" or Not?, Jung Journal, 6(4), (Fall 2012). His books include C. G. Jung: His Friendships with Mary Mellon and J. B. Priestley (Chiron, 1998).

| Psychopathology and Personality Type
|
|  |
Carl Jung’s ideas on psychological type grew out of observing the differences among people and his attempt to find objective criteria for describing those differences. Primary in his thinking was the perception that individuals are energized internally or externally, and he used the terms introvert or extravert to describe these attitudes. This seminar advances the study of psychological type, early attachment, and psychopathology. Lack of healthy attachment because of unrecognized type differences in parent and child is proposed as a significant factor in the development of borderline personality disorder and other disorders of the personality, mood, and behavior.
In this seminar, Borris Mathews Ph.D. and Ron Johnson M.Div., Ph.D. argue that affirming the client in her or his innate psychological type preference is the first step toward repairing the attachment deficit while gradually working on more appropriate utilization of the introverted and extraverted attitudes and the various functions. Over the course of therapy this approach can lead to greater self-acceptance and more realistic adaptation to the environment.

Psychopathy Within offers a new way of conceptualizing and defining psychopathy that is a convergence of the author’s divergent professional experiences as a forensic psychologist and a Jungian-oriented psychotherapist and her personal life experiences over decades as a Jungian student and analysand.
When her father died, the story of his life and their relationship ignited her curiosity about the meaning of psychopathy, enriching and amplifying what she already felt she knew from a wide range of experiences, study, and observations. The result is an invitation to explore this charged topic, psychopathy, with a new perspective that holds the potential for growth and healing. At the heart of the story is the power of eros—the devastating ramifications of its absence and the tremendous healing energy of its presence.
“Eve Maram’s Psychopathy Within brings a cogent synthesis of Jungian and forensic perspectives, uniquely presented both clinically and from personal experience,” says Robert Hinshaw, Ph.D., training analyst and faculty member of the C.G. Jung Institute of Zurich. “A well-researched approach to psychopathy is followed by a vision for potential healing, providing hope and useful advice, and making this a valuable resource not only for clinicians, but anyone confronted with a psychopathic situation.”
